“For us, travel is not a hobby... it’s an obsession. We have taken dozens of private tours throughout the world, but Bruno’s “Unforgettable Rio: Private Day Tour” clearly stands out as the very best experience to date. To start with: Many tour operators commonly offer knowledgeable, energetic guides; however, Bruno is unique in that he utilizes a personal driver providing door-to-door service at each site. Worded differently, there is literally no wasted down-time navigating limited street parking and/or crowded parking lots. Bruno mentioned that he is was born in Brazil, but lived in the USA for 20+ years; therefore, he is beyond fluent in both English and Portuguese. This ability...”

Favela Tour in Rio with Transfer service

15.Favela Tour in Rio with Transfer service

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 40 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $50

Spend about four hours exploring Rocinha or Vidigal with a local guide such as Hélio, Dario, or Carla. Walk narrow lanes, hear how the community formed, meet local people, and take in wide Rio views. Transport is included, but expect stairs, a long walk, and a possible crowded minivan.

“I loved this tour to the favela and enjoyed our guide Lydia. She took us to great places--especially the viewpoints. I would've given this 5 stars but the ride to the favela for 5 people was very tight--not comfortable. It would have been sufficient if only three people, but five, it was crowded--especially since the ride took about an hour due to traffic. Still seeing the favela up close and personal was a real treat. We felt safe and comfortable there.”
